“Batters failed, but I think we lost the game due to bowlers. You let them score 163 after leaving them at 37 for seven. Their top scorers were no. 9, 10, and 11 who are bowlers,” he said.
According to Basit Ali, the Pakistani side gets overconfident after winning a game.
“No doubt we won from England. But we get overconfident after winning a game. Players were given a two-day holiday for rest,” he said.
Pertinent to note here West Indies defeated Pakistan by 120 runs in the second Test in Multan earlier today. It was their first Test win on Pakistan soil after 1990.
Chasing a target of 254 in the second inning, the hosts’ batting lineup stumbled on a turning wicket as they were bundled out for 133 in the first session of Day 3.
